Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert has 30 blocks this season, though he will now miss at least four weeks with a right tibia contusion.
SALT LAKE CITY — With 9.8 seconds remaining in regulation, the Utah Jazz were knotted 94-94 with the Portland Trail Blazers at Vivint Arena.
Evan Turner inbounded the ball to All-Star guard Damian Lillard, who blew past defensive specialist Thabo Sefolosha in a one-on-one situation with a quick dribble drive.
As Lillard floated a 17-footer in the air for a potential game-winner, a large, 7-foot-1 Frenchman skied through the air gracefully like a bird defending its nest.
